Business Acquisition

NOTE I – BUSINESS ACQUISITION

On January 24, 2014, AMTEC Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, purchased substantially all of the assets of Chemring Energetic Devices, Inc.’s business located in Clear Lake, South Dakota, and all of the real property owned by Technical Ordnance Realty, LLC.  The Clear Lake facility is a manufacturer of detonators, booster pellets, release cartridges, lead azide, and other military energetic devices and materials.  Its major customers include U.S. and foreign government agencies, AMTEC Corporation, and other defense contractors.  The acquisition of the Clear Lake facility complements the Defense segment’s existing line of products.  The total consideration transferred was $10,534,000, consisting of $10,000,000 of cash paid at closing, and an additional cash payment of $534,000, which was made during the second quarter of 2014.

The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting with the Company treated as the acquiring entity.  Accordingly, the consideration paid by the Company to complete the acquisition has been recorded to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. The carrying values for current assets and liabilities were deemed to approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities.  The following table shows the amounts recorded as of the acquisition date.

Other current assets		28
Property, plant and equipment		4,800
Total assets acquired		11,014

Net assets acquired	$	10,534

The amount shown above for receivables represents the gross accounts receivable from the sales of goods, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $20,000.

The Company’s statement of comprehensive income includes revenue and earnings from the acquired facility of $5,294,000and $171,000, respectively, for the third quarter of 2014, and $11,301,000 and $876,000, respectively, for the period starting from the date of acquisition through the end of the third quarter of 2014.  The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated results of operations has been prepared as if the acquisition had occurred as of the first day of the fiscal year prior to the fiscal year in which the acquisition was completed.
